According to The Straight Dope, Yellowstone is not the most worrisome volcano in the world but it's always a good idea to work on that bucket list. You never know when you'll get hit by a random deadly event.
This is a time of celebration, so sit still and be quiet.

Humm. Entertaining omnis.
Let's see.
Tough one, I know.
Well, I'm just about to bake banana muffins and continue reading about 17th century Europe. I guess my more entertaining self could always do that naked.

Ugh. I'm putting together a spreadsheet with web stats for a coworker. It's giving me a serious hate-on for Excel.

I contemplated messing with a spreadsheet today to make it do what it's supposed to do instead of the thing it is doing. If I fix it, it saves me maybe 90 seconds of work each week. I decide it wasn't worth the hassle to save 6 minutes a month.

Um, ya. video not working. Shir, can you send pictures?
So my boss showed up at noon. Sick. Why? Just stay at home! I'm thinking I might be able to slip out in an hour or two. There are some supplies I need to buy for work. I can use that as an excuse to get out of the office. Especially if he's going to be spreading ick germs everywhere.

But when I first saw Shapely Prose, I hated it as much as I hated myself, so avoided it for about a month.
I ... can't read Shapely Prose. I love the idea of it, and I absolutely agree with everything they're saying. YES, accept who you are, be the healthiest person you can, and don't kill yourself to try and reach some societal standard that hardly anyone can maintain! But I can't read it. Because even though I agree with what they're saying, reading the posts about "diets don't really work, and most people gain back what they lose" facts upsets me. And makes me feel like I shouldn't try to maintain the weight I'm at, because it won't work, and I'm a big moron for trying.
Totally my messed-up issues, and I know that. I also know that I've stayed at the weight I am over the past few months of, erm, not-very-mindful eating and sloth, so I really should ignore the mutterings of the Body Image Demons. But it's hard, and sometimes reading Shapely Prose makes it harder.

{{{Nora}}} Still thinking of you.
Dude, this surgery stuff is whacked. My belly just aches. The only thing that feels good is to get Vicodined up and sleep but I can't just do that. I have to walk around and stuff. I thought I'd be back at work next Monday but I'm really not so sure now. I need help doing almost everything and I don't want to think about trying to drive my (stick) car in LA traffic. Ugh. I can tell you one thing: since (I hope) I'll be going through this again in about a year, I really want to get into better shape. I want to eat right and get some exercise going as soon as I possibly can. This is not on.

GC, my experience with abdominal surgery (kidneys, appendix, c-section) is it will heal MUCH faster than you expect. There's lingering soreness for a while, but you'll be able to sit up and laugh and walk up stairs within the next week for sure.

Oh that's good to hear, Jess. My surgery was Monday and I am feeling a little better each day, but not as quickly as I thought I would. Of course, the surgery was a bigger deal than originally anticipated (fibroid that ended up as big as a baseball [!!]). Doc said it was basically a c-section.
